T 0 all whom it 722 41 mnmrn Be it known that l. BILRDIHARI? Fiuss'r, :1 citizen of the lnitetl States, residing at Siliezi, in the enmity nf Hath and State eti Arkansas, have invented certain new and lbeftll ln'iprmenn-nts in Irnver-Xiwhen for Anteninhile-'lrnc'l:s el' which the ft'tlinwiiig is n npeeilientiun. reference being tent to the neeum mnying drawings.

This lIlYLllilt'lil reintes t0 tractors er trucks driven by powen :Hili pnriienlarly in the provision of :1 power operated wineh nwnnt ed upon the trurk and adapted to he thrown into gear with the motor on the tent-h or the driving: meehnnisin thereofl whenever it is desired in use the wineh.

The general object if the im'entin'n is in prrn'itle a wineh upun it power operated truck which winch will furnish puwer in whieh the in k may he pulled out of inn-i or when it is mired in soft greund, without the neeessity of using the puwer of the rear driving wheels. Attenn'iting to three a mired trnek fin-ward by the :lrive wheels alone nennlly causes these drive wheels to dig themselves in deeper with eneh turn that they nmlre.

A further object is tn provide a Wineh which can he tlSttl to great znlmntage to pull the truek ever steep hills with :1 heavy 10ml 0:" whirh may he USttl fur extr: heavy pulls in cnnneetiun with a single nr multiple blneh.

Another abject in to prm'itie a winch which ran elm he llfiill fer hoisting pur poses, in other worth-1, prnvirle a puwer up eruteal tree-k carrying it Wineh nhieh trnek may be transported under its nwn ne i tn the place desired aunt then the newer tie, connected from the driving wheels and e0nneeted t0 the winch so that the which may he used for hoisting or loading.

A further Object is to provide :1. t ntk if this chararter in whieh the driving shaft Carries a friction Wheel and the driven shaft, which is connected tn the winch elm ttll'lilfl a friction wheeh there being means whereby these flietinn heels rainy he (t}it?ztl'i\'ii eenneetetl tn m' (liSiHHillGl'Ltl mm e21 h ether, this meana pret'emhly including a not lever.
